Fa Yuen Street is another "Night Market" shopping experience…read more
The street is blocked off from vehicular traffic and both sides of the street are lined with vendors that block the regular brick and mortar shops along the way. That means there's four rows of shopping!
The outdoor ambiance was fine for an October day. The sky was a bit overcast, so we were not burning in the heat. Some stalls weren't set up by noon, but most were open.
Vendors didn't bargain much since prices were quite reasonable.
Example: I got a pair of socks for 10 HK$ while I got another pair for 12 HK$ at a different place yesterday.
Yeah, it's only a few cents difference, but hey... it's the principle.
Fa Yuen Street had more fruits, towels, and household goods as compared with the Ladies Market.
I saw pillows, curtains, chair covers, blankets, and scissors here. Other merchandise included luggage, purses, tote bags, reusable bags, Thai-style clothing, umbrellas, sunglasses, socks, underwear, and more!
For us, it was worth the trek over. We got off at the Mong Kok Station... same one we used for the Ladies Market!
